The proposed contractor’s unique qualifications and the nature of the acquisition requires use of the authority cited as follows:

i. This is a unique procurement for the retainment of artist Robert A. Anderson in providing a portrait of Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin. The portrait will be added to the Department of Treasury’s portrait Secretary collection dating back to 1880. A phased approach was conducted with Secretary Mnuchin reviewing several artists’ port-folio binders. He made his technical decision in approved artist Robert A. Anderson for this acquisition. Market research reveals there are three studios that can provide the artist’s services, and as this is limited to one artist, a brand name justification appears appropriate in this instance.
